Featured review
Very predicatble and buckles under the weight of its own formula
Some people go to an escape room but soon it becomes apparent that it is a tad more deadly than the brochure made out.
This starts off quite well with the characters working through the puzzles whilst some relationship issues simmer in the background.
This I found interesting and good fun.
Then the Saw type traps get sprung.
From here on in it is just boring.
The previous issues between the characters lose all their currency as now people are just trying to avoid a grizzly death.
There are still puzzles to solve but now the women are all hysterical and weepy, the men are all aggressive and irrational - yawn - yawn -yawn.
The ending is just odd and made very little sense.
Seemingly as an after thought there is some nudity in the end of the film that was again just odd.
I am never one to sniff at a beautiful woman running around naked but even I found myself asking why?
I think this would have been better if it had toned down the slasher element and gone with something a little less bloody but more restrained.
